Lyrics for Trying To Get Back On My Feet
If you cross your heart to someone You're not suposed to tell a lie If you cross your heart to someone You're not suposed to tell a lie Before you say a wrong Or either do wrong It have to be so long Or either goodbye The first time I crossed my heart I was by your bedside on my knees Yes, the first time I crossed my heart I was by your bedside down on my knees Sure enough, may (spoke) And I know the difference between I knew I'd have to beg you Please, darlin', help me please I cross my heart For you're the one, yes I know I cross my heart to you To you baby, because I know There's no one else, I know Anything you tell me to do I have to do it or I'll have to go Compositor: Greg Guidry / Sonny Boy Williamson II
